It was a very hot day.

A farmer was
working on his field. He was there for
several hours. He was very tired and
wanted to get some rest. Just before he
found a nice place to rest, he saw
something very shiny. He came to the
shiny object and took it. It was a
hedgehog statue. It was very beautiful. Its
eyes were made of diamond. Those were
the shiny objects he saw. The farmer then
brought the statue home. He wanted to
show it to his wife. His wife was so happy.
They were so poor and planned to sell
the statue.
At night, the farmer had a dream. A
giant hedgehog came to him. He said,
“Please let me stay in your home. As a
return, I will give you everything you want.
Just caress the statue’s head and say the
prayer. There are two kinds of prayers,
one is to start your wish and the second is
to stop your wish. Now memorize the
prayers.”
The farmer told his wife about his
dream. They really wanted to prove it.
The farmer slowly caressed the statue's
head. He said the prayer and asked for
rice. Suddenly, a magic thing happened.
Rice came out of the mouth of the statue.
The rice kept on coming out from the
statue's mouth. The farmer immediately
said the prayer to stop it. It worked! The
rice then stopped coming out from the
statue's mouth. Now the farmer
mentioned other things, they were
jewellery and other stuffs they needed. In
a very short moment, the farmer and his
wife became very rich. They shared some
of goods with the neighbours.
There was one neighbour who was very
jealous with the farmer. He was actually a
thief. He wanted to know how the poor
farmer became rich. After the thief found
out, he stole the magic hedgehog statue.
He immediately took it and ran away. He
was very tired from running and was very
thirsty. He wanted to get some water from
the statue. He said the prayer. His wish
came true. Water came out of the statue’s
mouth. The thief was so happy. He drank
and drank the water. He wanted to stop
drinking but he did not know how to stop
the water. He forgot the prayer to stop
the wish.
 Water kept on coming out. He did not
know what to do. He was really panic. He
asked for help. People who saw the
incident were really scared. They ran
away to avoid the water. More and more
water surrounded him. Slowly, it became a
small pond. Water flowed on the ground.
It became a river. People then named the
river as Hedgehog River or Sungai
Landak.
